Actor Rob Schneider lambasts “progressive Democrats” and tech giants over their unbelievable censorship: “We are in an Orwellian nightmare”

You would think that the A-list artistic types in Hollywood and New York who make their living entertaining Americans would be more sensitive to overt censorship, but since most of the more notable stars are to the political Left of Karl Marx, they have no problems if the ‘right’ people are getting censored.
In fact, oftentimes they call for more people to be banned and censored from the public square — especially social media — simply because they disagree with their political, cultural, or social views and opinions.
But actor Rob Schneider is an exception to the Hollywood Left insofar as his concerns that “progressive Democrats” and their like-minded allies in big tech are going too far when it comes to pushing for more “Orwellian” censorship.
As noted by Breitbart News, Schneider launched a half-dozen tweets over the weekend in which he criticized the tech giants for ramping up their censorship campaign against ‘far-Right’ figures.
To that end, as NewsTarget reported, Facebook deplatformed/‘de-personed’ Alex Jones and his Infowars news site, former Infowars editor-at-large Paul Joseph Watson, conservative activist Laura Loomer, and others.
Schneider began by retweeting a post from investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson warning about the never-ending campaigns by Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and others to ban mostly conservative voices.
She asked, “When did we decide, as Americans, that it’s ok for government & 3d parties to censor/curate our info? That we cannot be trusted with unfiltered info? That we should only be able to find info that *they* tell us is true on matters that are opinion or in legitimate dispute? #SlipperySlope.”
